RESUMO
Autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis, result from a loss of tolerance to self-antigens and immune-mediated injury precipitated by the overproduction of type I IFN and inflammatory cytokines. We have identified the inositol 5' phosphatase SHIP-1 as a negative regulator of TLR3-induced type I IFN production. SHIP-1-deficient macrophages display enhanced TLR-induced IFN-beta production, and overexpression of SHIP-1 negatively regulates the ability of TLR3 and its adaptor, Toll/IL-1 receptor domain-containing adaptor-inducing IFN-beta, to induce IFN-beta promoter activity, indicating that SHIP-1 negatively regulates TLR-induced IFN-beta production. Further dissection of the IFN-beta pathway implicates TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) as the target for SHIP-1. Critically, in the absence of SHIP-1, TBK1 appears to be hyperphosphorylated both in unstimulated cells and following TLR3 stimulation. In addition, TBK1 appears to be constitutively associated with Toll/IL-1 receptor domain-containing adaptor-inducing IFN-beta and TNFR-associated factor 3 in SHIP-1 deficient cells, whereas in wild-type cells this association is inducible following TLR3 stimulation. In support of a role for SHIP-1 in regulating complex formation, confocal microscopy demonstrates that TBK1 distribution in the cell is significantly altered in SHIP-1-deficient cells, with more prominent endosomal staining observed, compared with wild-type controls. Taken together, our results point to SHIP-1 as a critical negative regulator of IFN-beta production downstream of TLR3 through the regulation of TBK1 localization and activity.

We demonstrate in this study that IgE + Ag-induced proinflammatory cytokine production is substantially higher in Src homology-2-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP)(-/-) than in SHIP(+/+) bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs). Focusing on IL-6, we found that the repression of IL-6 mRNA and protein production in SHIP(+/+) BMMCs requires the enzymatic activity of SHIP, because SHIP(-/-) BMMCs expressing wild-type, but not phosphatase-deficient (D675G), SHIP revert the IgE + Ag-induced increase in IL-6 mRNA and protein down to levels seen in SHIP(+/+) BMMCs. Comparing the activation of various signaling pathways to determine which ones might be responsible for the elevated IL-6 production in SHIP(-/-) BMMCs, we found the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PKB), extracellular signal-related kinase (Erk), p38, c-Jun N-terminal kinase, and protein kinase C (PKC) pathways are all elevated in IgE + Ag-induced SHIP(-/-) cells. Moreover, inhibitor studies suggested that all these pathways play an essential role in IL-6 production. Looking downstream, we found that IgE + Ag-induced IL-6 production is dependent on the activity of NF-kappa B and that I kappa B phosphorylation/degradation and NF-kappa B translocation, DNA binding and transactivation are much higher in SHIP(-/-) BMMCs. Interestingly, using various pathway inhibitors, it appears that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/PKB and PKC pathways elevate IL-6 mRNA synthesis, at least in part, by enhancing the phosphorylation of I kappa B and NF-kappa B DNA binding while the Erk and p38 pathways enhance IL-6 mRNA synthesis by increasing the transactivation potential of NF-kappa B. Taken together, our data are consistent with a model in which SHIP negatively regulates NF-kappa B activity and IL-6 synthesis by reducing IgE + Ag-induced phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate levels and thus PKB, PKC, Erk, and p38 activation.

Using bone marrow derived mast cells from SH2-containing inositol-5-phosphatase (SHIP) +/+ and minus sign/minus sign mice, we found that the loss of SHIP leads to a dramatic increase in Steel Factor (SF)-stimulated phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P(3)), a substantial reduction in PI(3,4)P(2), and no change in PI(4,5)P(2) levels. We also found that SF-induced activation of protein kinase B (PKB) is increased and prolonged in SHIP -/- cells, due in large part to more PKB associating with the plasma membrane in these cells. Pretreatment of SHIP -/- cells with 25 microm LY294002 resulted in complete inhibition of SF-induced PI(3,4)P(2), while still yielding PI(3,4,5)P(3) levels similar to those achieved in SHIP+/+ cells. This offered a unique opportunity to study the regulation of PKB by PI(3,4,5)P(3), in the absence of PI(3,4)P(2). Under these conditions, PKB activity was markedly reduced compared with that in SF-stimulated SHIP+/+ cells, even though more PKB localized to the plasma membrane. Although phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1 mediated phosphorylation of PKB at Thr-308 was unaffected by LY294002, phosphorylation at Ser-473 was dramatically reduced. Moreover, intracellular delivery of PI(3,4)P(2) to LY294002-pretreated, SF-stimulated SHIP -/- cells increased phosphorylation of PKB at Ser-473 and increased PKB activity. These results are consistent with a model in which SHIP serves as a regulator of both activity and subcellular localization of PKB.
